Our country has been produced much amounts of panax ginseng roots which has a stimulating effects on the metabolism of protein, lipid and nucleic acids in the body. And the leaf trunk of panax ginseng were also produced a considerable amounts as the by - products. Therefore, this study was devised to observe the nutritional effect to rats feeding of rice diet supplemented with by - products of panax ginseng, male Albino rats of pure strain weighing 73.8 ${\pm}$ 0.7 g were used as experimental animal to investigate the changes of cholesterol in heart and testis. The animals were divided into sixteen diet group, they were the protein contents of 9%, 12%, 15% and 18% supplemented with 2% panax ginseng roots and its by - products respectively. The group without the supplements were used as the control. The diet group were again divided into 2 groups according to the feeding terms, 4 weeks and 8 weeks. It is concluded that the free from cholesterol and total cholesterol contents in the heart and testis with the supplements of panax ginseng roots and its by - products showed significant difference compared to the control group.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of the salinity on growth, inorganic ion content, and photosynthetic rate ($\textrm{P}^{N}$) in Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) with complex fertilizer (CF) and NaCl concentrations. The salinity was applied to plant using NaCl and CF, and controlled an EC as 0.0, 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 dS $\textrm{m}^{-1}$. The salinity treated three times at 35, 42 and 49 d after transplanting. The leaf area in different electrical conductivity (EC) decreased only the higher NaCl 1.0 dS $\textrm{m}^{-1}$. The root growth increased with CF and especially, it was two times higher at 3.0 dS $\textrm{m}^{-1}$ than that of control. But the root growth sharply decreased with NaCl compared to CF. The light saturation point of Korean ginseng was around 100 $\mu\textrm{mol}\;\textrm{m}^{-2}\textrm{s}^{-1}$ photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), and $\textrm{P}^{N}$ increased as CF increased but decreased with NaCl especially at the late growth stage. The $\textrm{Na}^{+}$ content in Korean ginseng increased sharply with NaCl.

This study was conducted to define the effects of light transparent rate of the shading on the photosynthesis ability of the ginseng leaves and their seasonal changes. Regardless the effects of light transparent rate of shading and age of ginseng plant, 10,000 lux was the most adequate light intensity for the maximum photosynthesis of ginseng leaves and seasonal difference was not significant. The ginseng plants which were grown under 10 to 15 percent light transparent shading showed the highest photosynthesis ability. The photosynthesis ability of ginseng leaves was significantly decreased in September than June and the decreasing rate was higher at the ginseng plants planted on back rows than front rows. In June, the ginseng plants grown under 10 to 15 percent light transparent shading showed high respiration amount but in September, those grown under 20 to 25% light transparent shading showed the highest respiration. The amount of chlorophyll of ginseng leaf was significantly decreased by increasing light transparent rate of shading.

This study was conducted to obtain the breeding Information for varietal difference of leaf breakdown of flue-cured tobacco at Taegu Experiment Station, Korea Ginseng & Tobacco Research Institute In 1988. The experiment was designed in randomized block with 3 replications. And data were analyzed as spilt plot design composed with varieties for main and growth stages for sub-plots. Among the 8 varieties (NC 95, SL 72, Sleight G-28, TC 518, NC82, NC 2326, NC 567 and TC 499), first half derived from NC 95, and 4 latter varieties were used for check Plants and not derived from NC 95. Plant seedlings were transplanted in 15 April. The number of breakdown leaf were investigated twice at peak growth stage, 5 June and at early harvest stage, 30 June. NC 95 and varieties derived from NC 95 had showed significantly different on the number of breakdown leaf compared to the latter 4 ones after heavy rainfall, but there were not significantly different at the two growth stages. It was suggested that NC95 and varieties derived from NC 95 had substance to induce leaf breakdown by conditional genes after water absorption to plant tissue. Among the varieties derived from NC 95 cultivar SC 72, Speight G-28 and TC 518 had appeared significantly different on the number of breakdown leaf, respectively. These results could appreciated analogically that character of leaf breakdown were governed by heteromeric genes In NC 95.

Light transmittance was 14% in the plastic-film house, while 9.9% in conventional shade during growing season from May to October. Withering time of aboveground part was on October 3rd in conventional shade with 60% of withering leaf, while it was on November 10th with 3.7% of withering leaf in the plastic-film house, about 40 days longer survival. The main disease incidence were 15% of anthracnose, 17% of leaf spot, 5% of phytophthora blight and 3% of gray mold in the conventional shade, while 0 ~ 0.1% disease incidence and 95% of emergence rate in the plastic-film house. The growth in the aboveground and underground part of ginseng was totally better, particularly characteristics affecting yield such as root length, main root length and diameter in the plastic-film house. The fresh weight was increased by 128% compared to the conventional shade and harvested roots per $3.3m^2$ were 36 roots in the conventional shade and 58 roots in the plastic-film house and futhermore yield per $3.3m^2$ was increased by 216% compared to the conventional shade. As covering materials, the rice straw in the plastic-film house was excellent. The ginsenoside contents affecting the quality of ginseng were higher in the plastic-film house indicating 0.333% of Rg1, 0.672% of Rb1, 0.730% of Rc and rate of red rusty root was less than 4.0 ~ 6.1%. Above the results, the quality of ginseng grown in the plastic-film house covered with shade net was improved than that of the conventional shade.

This paper reports the characteristics of 8 new cultivars for selected from Korean ginseng. The occurance of multi stems were the highest in Yunpoong(45%) and the lowest in Gumpoong(7%), but growth of aerial parts were the highest in Gumpoong and the lowest In Yunpoong among new cultiyars. The ratio of seeds harvest were the highest in Gumpoong(85.4%) and the lowest in Chunpoong(69.1%), but number of seeds per plant were the highest in Yunpoong(108.3ea) and the lowest in Chunpoong(77.5ea) among new cultivars. The ratio of leaf burning were the highest in Chunpoong but the lowest in Yunpoong among new cultivars. In weight distribution of the different parts of the ginseng roots, the ratio of main root were high in Jakyungjong(63.1%) but low in new cultivars(49%-55.9%), but the ratio of lateral root were high in new cultivars(19.3-23.3%), but low in Jakyungjong(13.2%), the ratio of fine root were not different. Root yield declined in the order of Yunpoong, Gumpoong, Gopoong, Chunpoong, Sunpoong, Jakyungjong. The length of main root were the longest in Chunpoong(8,0cm) but the shortest in Yunpoong(6,4cm), The ratio of rusty-root was low in new cultivars(0,2-9,5%), but high in Jakyungiong(16,3%). The grade of red ginseng roots decreased in the order of Chunpoong, Gumpoong, Gopoong, Sunpoong, Yunpoong, Cheongsun, Jakyungjong.

This study was carried out to investigate spectral irradiance characteristics of blue, yellow, and blue-black colored polyethylene (PE) shading net and the effect on growth characteristics and yield in ginseng seedling. The spectral irradiance $({\mu}mol/m^2/s/nm)$ showed the peak at 498 nm in both of blue and blue-black PE shading net, and 606 nm under yellow PE one. The intensity of blue light in blue shading was more strong than that of blue-black shading, control. Blue shading was increased by 17% and 23% in accumulated quantum for daytime, $0.5^{\circ}C and $0.2^{\circ}C$ in maximum temperature on June 2 than that of yellow and blue-black shading, respectively, but heat injury ratio of the former was lower than that of the latter. Chlorophyll content and stem length in blue shading were decreased more significantly than those of yellow and blue-black shading. The specific leaf weight was higher under blue and yellow shading than that of blue-black shading. Ginseng seedling harvested in blue shading was increased by $13{\sim}17%$ in the number of root, and $17{\sim}20%$ in root weight per $m^ 2 compared to yellow and blue-black shading owing to the increase of survived plant, and the decrease of specific leaf weight, heat injury ratio, and stem length.

Fatty acid compositions of Panax ginseng leaves (6 year) grown under different light intensity in field and of the detached leaves exposed to high temperature (20 hours) were investigated by gas chromatography. Linoleic, linolenic, palmitic and palmitoleic acid were the major components(80%) of leaf lipid. The higher the growth light intensity, the lower the percentage of unsaturated acids or bonds, indicating metabolic adaptation to high temperature. Pattern similarity of fatty acid composition was little changed until 20% light but significantly different at 30%, suggesting 20% as limitation light intensity. The close similarity of fatty acid composition between the loaves grown under 30% light and the one at harvest rises uncertainty between adaptation to high temperature and senescence. Total fatty acid content decreased with the increase of light intensity. Short term high temperature $(25^{\circ}C\;or\;35^{\circ}C)$ increased total fatty acid content, unsaturated acid percentage and insignificant difference in pattern similarity of composition.
